What is Art*o*mat®?

What is Art*o*mat®? Created by Clark Whittington in 1997, Art*o*mat® machines are retired cigarette machines that have been converted to VEND ART! For only $5 you can collect paintings, drawings, sculpture, photography, jewelry, glass, mixed media and more -all the size of a pack of cigarettes. There are over 100 active machines in various locations throughout the country. Victoria Brown (that's me), and El Centro de Santa Fe are proud to host the first machine in New Mexico which debuted in February 2013. There are now 8 machines in northern New Mexico (Santa Fe and Albuquerque area). @ARToMatNM on Facebook/Instagram

Merry Christmahannukwanzaka/Festivus ...and a Happy New Year Too!

The weather has turned cold and it's holiday season already.  Have you finished your shopping yet? Putting your feet up by the fire and sipping something festive? I hope you aren't letting the stresses of the holiday rush get to ya.
If you haven't finished getting those last minute gifts yet don't fret. You know it's the thought that counts. And everyone just wants to know they are loved.  What says "you've been in my thoughts and I want to show you that I love you" more than art from Art*o*mat®? You're right. Nothing.  The compact size and the just-right-price is perfect for stuffing all the stockings in your life. Plus, Art*o*mat® machines are in 6 easy-to-stop-in locations with great hours and great parking!

Let's all just enjoy the holidays, give the Wally World Marts a rest, and support artists and the amazing work they do! Thank you to all my Art*o*mat® friends and fans for making 2016 a great year. Cheers and best wishes for a fabulous 2017!

Peace
Love
Art
